We're looking for someone who's been the EHS go-to in a complex, multi-country environment — comfortable owning the day-to-day in their region while helping a small, growing team write the standards that make global EHS work at scale. You'll handle hands-on work — inspections, investigations, occupational health cases, committees, training — and you'll co-author the EMEA-tuned versions of programs we're building to meet UK, Irish, and EU regulatory expectations.
What it asks for · 9
- Have 7+ years of experience in a role with similar responsibilities, with meaningful time spent owning EHS for a region or as the lead in your geography
- Have strong working knowledge of EHS regulatory frameworks across the UK and Ireland (HSE, HSA), and ideally additional EU jurisdictions (France, Germany, Netherlands)
- Have working knowledge of fire safety regulation and compliance across Europe — e.g. the UK Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order, Irish and German equivalents — including Fire Risk Assessments and duty-holder responsibilities
- Are comfortable being the EHS expert in the room — translating regulatory requirements into clear decisions, and pushing back when something isn't safe
- Are passionate about workplace EHS, and bring that energy to the people you work with
- Have an ability to motivate and persuade others to collaborate, take action, and engage with EHS-related programs
- Are resilient and adaptable in fast-paced, dynamic environments — comfortable with ambiguity and able to prioritize when everything looks urgent
- Write clear, useful SOPs, playbooks, and program documents, and can create engaging presentations and training content
- Have hands-on experience with software tools for EHS incident reporting, risk assessment, learning management, and related functions
Also a plus
- A Bachelor's degree in Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Science, or another EHS-related field
- NEBOSH National or International Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety
- Chartered or Graduate membership of IOSH (CMIOSH, GradIOSH); CIEH or comparable Irish/EU equivalent
- Familiarity with ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management Systems)
- Experience with French CSE/CHSCT processes, DUERP, or German BetrSichV requirements
- Background in occupational health, fire safety, or industrial hygiene
- Experience standing up EHS programs for new offices or new countries
- Excellent computer skills — quick to pick up new applications and systems at the user and/or administrator level
